Chapter 964 The Stubborn Little Girl
At this time, Suning was also stunned by the actions of these two teenagers. What's the use of trying so hard to steal a photo album? The consequence will only make them become thieves and regret it for the rest of their lives.

So Suning suddenly realized that they were a group of mentally challenged kids who didn't have much judgment and cognitive ability about their own behavior, so it was not surprising that they did those crazy things next.

By the time this group of teenagers left the city, they still hadn't caught the two escaped idiots.

"Chu Bingbing, why haven't you left yet?" Su Ning looked at the little girl who was left alone with some surprise.

"Master Su, I've made up my mind! I will stay with you until Wang Daneng and Song Yu are caught." The little girl looked at Su Ning in front of her with a stubborn face and explained.

"Ah? Your parents will worry about you. You'd better go home quickly. This photo album is really not that important."

"Hmph! No way! I promised you that I would protect the album with my life. Since I broke my promise and lost the album, I am naturally responsible for its loss."

"Chu Bingbing, how are you going to take responsibility? If we can't find the two of you in this lifetime, will you stay in Forty-Nine City forever?"

"Yes! That's what I planned."

"..."

At this moment, Suning was completely speechless, knowing that there was no point in saying more to the little girl in front of him.

Then I thought that I could only go to Xu Huizhen for this matter. After all, this matter should be the responsibility of their neighborhood committee.

But when Su Ning arrived at Xu Huizhen and Cai Quanwu's house, he saw Xu Huizhen exhausted.

"Xu Huizhen, what's going on with Chu Bingbing?" Su Ning walked into their house and asked Xu Huizhen directly.

"The little girl is too stubborn! I have no way to deal with her." In fact, Xu Huizhen was also troubled by Chu Bingbing's decision.

"So, let her stay in Forty-Nine City like this?"

"Ah! Judging from the current situation, this is the only way. After all, they can't be beaten or scolded. Besides, I plan to let her work as a temporary worker in the neighborhood committee."

"Xu Huizhen, how you arrange for Chu Bingbing is the responsibility of your neighborhood committee. Can you arrange for her to live somewhere else first?"

"There's nothing we can do! This little girl is used to living in your house. Just think of her as having another little girl."

"Xu Huizhen, this is the first time I realize you are so hateful."

"Haha, Suning, our street and neighborhood committee will never forget your contribution."

Seeing Xu Huizhen and Cai Quanwu becoming more and more rogue, Suning had no choice but to accept the reality. However, it was really inconvenient to have a little girl at home.

When Su Ning returned home, she found Chu Bingbing helping Su Jie with his homework. Then, seeing that it was almost lunchtime, she went straight to the kitchen to cook.

After all, the first batch of teenagers had left the old city, so the father and son no longer needed to eat any big pot meals. In addition, there was an inexplicable guest at home, so Suning specially prepared a sumptuous table of four dishes and one soup.

"Chu Bingbing, Su Jie, come over and wash your hands and have dinner."

"Dad, we are coming."

Chu Bingbing came over after washing her hands and saw the sumptuous meal of four dishes and one soup, especially the plate of tempting braised pork. Just by looking at the color and aroma, you could tell it was cooked in the Shanghai style.

"Master Su, it's braised pork?" Chu Bingbing looked at Su Ning in front of her with surprise and asked.

"Yes! After all, you are a guest in our house, so naturally I would think of making Shanghai braised pork for you." Suning explained with a nonchalant smile.

"Thank you! Master Su." Chu Bingbing looked at Su Ning in front of her with gratitude and said.

"Alright! Sit down and eat!"

"Ah."

Then Suning and his son Su Jie accompanied the guest Chu Bingbing for lunch. It was the first time that Chu Bingbing saw Suning's real cooking skills, and she was immediately amazed and delighted.

"Hmm? Master Su, the braised pork you make is even better than the one my mom makes." Chu Bingbing gave Su Ning a thumbs up while eating heartily.

"Chu Bingbing, have you called your family?" At this time, Su Ning looked at Chu Bingbing soberly and asked.

"No! But I've asked my classmates to bring me a letter. Anyway, they won't worry about my safety."

"Silly girl, how could there be parents who don't worry about their daughter? After dinner, go to the neighborhood committee and call home."

"That's great! Aunt Xu just said she'd like to arrange for me to work as a temporary worker in the neighborhood committee."

Looking at the innocent little girl in front of him, Suning felt a bit amused and helpless. He didn't expect that there would be a follow-up plot after the first batch of teenagers came to the old city.

The little girl Chu Bingbing naturally enjoyed the meal very much, and then she happily went to the neighborhood committee to call her family.

After Chu Bingbing hung up the phone call to her family in Shanghai, she came to Xu Huizhen and asked, "Aunt Xu, why doesn't Master Su have a wife?"

"Haha, of course he had a wife, otherwise where did Su Jie come from? But they were divorced in 1958."

"Huh? Why?"

"The relationship between him and his ex-wife broke down, so he chose to divorce and raise his son alone."

"Aunt Xu, Master Su's ex-wife is really too much. How can she be so heartless and ungrateful?"

"No! Master Su's ex-wife is Chen Xueru from the silk shop. They broke up peacefully."

At this moment, Chu Bingbing couldn't help but reveal a thoughtful expression, and became even more curious about the mysterious Su Ning.

……

At this time, Suning finally relaxed completely, and then he leisurely drank tea and read a book on the lounge chair under the grape trellis.

Because this is a special period in history, there are not many books for Suning to choose from, so he took out a copy of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy" and started reading.

I only read for a while and then fell asleep in the warm sunshine and the book in my hand. I was really exhausted by being tossed around by these young people during this period.

When Chu Bingbing came back again, she saw Su Ning sleeping under the grape trellis. Then, she suddenly had an idea and moved a bamboo stool to sit next to Su Ning.

Chu Bingbing looked at the sleeping man curiously, and couldn't help but realize that Su Ning's temperament was very outstanding, and he gave her the feeling of being a mystery that could never be solved.

Chu Bingbing, who was full of longing and yearning for this world, was undoubtedly very adventurous, and she unconsciously developed a different feeling for Suning.

"Ah? Chu Bingbing, why are you sitting here?" Su Ning was immediately frightened by the little girl beside him when he woke up. He was really worried that he would say something inappropriate in his sleep. "Hey, Su Ning, I'm sitting here watching you." Chu Bingbing said to Su Ning in a joking tone.

"Silly girl, I'm not a photo album, no one will steal it from me."

"It's hard to say! You're so handsome, maybe some girl has already taken a fancy to you."

"Chu Bingbing, if you're really bored, I have a few anthologies and vernacular novels in my room."

"No need! I can just sit next to you."

"..."

Seeing Chu Bingbing suddenly acting strangely, Suning actually hoped that the police station could catch those two idiots as soon as possible so that they could get rid of Chu Bingbing as soon as possible.

In the next few days, Suning's life returned to normal, and he went to get off work and picked up his children every day.

It’s just that it always feels a little inconvenient to have an outsider in the house, and Chu Bingbing gradually regarded this place as her own home.

……

Chen Xueru's second marriage also ended in tragedy. Her current husband Hou Minhao took away all her property and then took the Hou family on a boat to Hong Kong Island in the dark.

As Chen Xueru's eldest son, Su Jie naturally came to visit, but he did not expect to encounter bad things.

Chen Xueru's mother looked at her grandson with displeasure and asked, "Su Jie, I heard your father found you a stepmother?"

"Grandma, how can you talk nonsense! Sister Bingbing is just a teenager who came to the old city to connect with people, and she is just temporarily living in our house." Hearing his grandma making up such stories about his father, Su Jie couldn't help but get angry.

"Come on! The first group of teenagers who came to the Forty-Nine City have already left. Only this little girl named Chu Bingbing is left here. I don't believe that there's nothing fishy going on between her and your father."

"Humph! The street and neighborhood committee have no objections. How can an outsider like you say such harsh words?"

"Hey! Su Jie, why are you talking to me, your grandma? You are so rude." Mother Chen on the side immediately scolded Su Jie with an ugly face, feeling that the grandson in front of her was too disrespectful to her.

"Mom, grandma, I hope you won't make trouble for no reason. I will never come to your house again." Su Jie stood up angrily and looked at Chen Xueru and Chen's mother solemnly and emphasized.

"you……"

Then Su Jie got up and left the Chen family angrily, feeling angry at his mother and the Chen family's nonsense.

Watching Su Jie leave angrily, Chen's mother looked at Chen Xueru with a face full of complaints and said, "Xueru, look at how this child has been spoiled. We really shouldn't have left Su Jie to Suning in the first place."

"Okay! Mom, stop nagging me."

Chen Xueru is undoubtedly feeling upset now because her second marriage also ended in failure. In addition to leaving her with a son, her second husband took away all the wealth that Chen Xueru had accumulated over the years.

Today, Su Jie also heard the news and came to comfort her as a mother. This originally made Chen Xueru feel that there is true love in the world, but it was completely destroyed by Chen's mother who spoke without restraint.

Chen Xueru knew her mother's complicated mentality. She just wanted her to remarry Su Ning and was very repulsive to any opposite sex who appeared around Su Ning.

What’s funny is that Chen’s mother didn’t think about it in advance. Whether their Chen family has the qualifications to exclude others is important. You have to know that Suning and Chen Xueru have no connection at all.

……

As Chen Xueru's best friend, Xu Huizhen naturally learned the news very quickly and immediately went to the Su family to find Su Ning to match them up.

"Suning, have you heard about Chen Xueru?"

"I heard! Su Jie went to check on his mother, but he was so disgusted by her family that he came back crying."

"What...what's going on?"

"It's disgusting. All you need to know is that we didn't have much contact with them."

"Suning, don't you want to help Chen Xueru when she's in the most difficult time?"

"Hmph! How should I help her? Should I help her go to Hong Kong and find that scumbag? Or should I throw my life into the Chen family's trap again?"

"This……"

"Xu Huizhen, I know why you came here this time. You simply want me to remarry Chen Xueru."

"Isn't this a good idea? Chen Xueru is Su Jie's biological mother."

"Xu Huizhen, it seems you still don't understand me. To me, a woman is unfaithful once and never used again. Have you seen me and Chen Xueru meet once in all these years?"

"Hey! Why bother! For the sake of our children, we have to learn to compromise."

"If I compromise for my child, will he compromise for me when he grows up? There's a pristine forest right in front of me, why do I have to turn around and hang myself on that crooked tree?"

"..."

"I know it's hard for you to understand my thinking, but this is indeed my own idea. Chen Xueru and I will never be in the past."

"Hey! Okay! I'll go and persuade Chen Xueru later."

"Oh right! As my good friend, please help me tell Chen Xueru to stop interfering with the people around me. Also, I, Su Ning, will never owe her or the Chen family anything in my life."

Xu Huizhen didn't expect that Su Ning, who was usually calm and composed, would be so disgusted with Chen Xueru. She realized that Su Ning had always been unwilling to accept that marriage.

After Xu Huizhen left the Su family, Chu Bingbing looked at Su Ning with an apologetic look on her face. "Su Ning, I'm sorry! I've caused you trouble."

"It's okay! This has nothing to do with you. My ex-wife and her second husband had problems, and her second husband ran away with all her wealth. So my ex-wife and her family want me to remarry her. That's why they're picking on me for no reason so they can claim the moral high ground."

"Suning, why did you and your ex-wife divorce?"

"She's too strong! And I'm a carefree person, so life between the two of us is destined to be a chaotic mess."

Chu Bingbing looked at the man in front of her curiously, and suddenly felt more and more curious about this man, and he couldn't help but attract all her attention.

Just now, Su Jie came back crying all the way. When Chu Bingbing heard that Chen Xueru and Chen's mother thought Chu Bingbing was his stepmother, she felt a little frantic.
